Great Close Miking for the Live Stage
Sound engineers, producers, and musicians looking for a workhorse microphone to capture precise, natural sound from a wide range of instruments will be delighted by the 2012 from DPA, a cardioid condenser mic that's built to survive the rigors of live stage performances, day after day. Designed to be placed close to instruments, the mic can handle peak SPLs up to 156 dB while the smooth, uniform cardioid polar pattern offers a consistent response across the entire frequency range, helping to ensure sounds are accurately reproduced with precision and nuance.
A Cardioid Mic Ready for a Variety of Instruments
- Equally at home in the orchestra pit, on a live stage, or in the studio, the 2012 is a versatile mic that captures detailed, natural sound from numerous sources, including guitars, horns, percussion, and more.
- The microphone is designed for close-miking and offers a linear frequency response when positioned about 11.8 inches from the source.
- A flat on-axis frequency response with a light presence boost in the 5 to 12 kHz range provides faithful reproduction of instrumental performances.
- The 17mm electret-condenser capsule offers an outstanding transient response to deliver rich, expressive sound and can handle peak SPLs up to 156 dB with a 10% THD, allowing you to use it on loud sources, including snare drums as well as electric guitar and bass cabinets.
- The uniform cardioid polar pattern focuses audio capture in front of the mic and ensures that any bleed from other instruments is a truly accurate reflection of the original sound.
Durable, Performance-Ready Build Quality
- Live performance stages can be difficult environments for equipment, especially for a go-to mic that you'll use on every show.
- The 2012 is built with a thick and robust structure that can stand up to the everyday abuses of touring and performing, with extra-durable surfaces for more graceful aging.
- The compact size makes it easier to optimally place the mic, even on cramped stages packed with equipment.
- The included professional-quality holder provides a firm grip to keep the mic in place.
- Connect the standard 3-pin XLR connector to a wide variety of mixing boards and preamplifiers and power the electret-condenser capsule with 48V phantom power.

Nice shoes!
Size: 11, Color: Black Full Grain
I bought them in black and I like them so much I will be buying the brown soon. They fit true to size and are comfortable and stylish. I like the clean simplicity. They're basically a dressy sneaker which is perfect for my job's 'dress code'. Yet they're stylish enough to be worn weekends or a night out. They seemed just a touch stiff out of the box but IMO that's completely normal and fine - after just a couple days of wearing them they are breaking in nicely. No complaints on that. They seem to be of very high quality and I'm very happy with them.
